18 Playgrounds That Aren’t Playing Around

When people think of playgrounds, they usually remember all the fun times they had there as children. However, not all playgrounds are created equal. Some designers try too hard; some don’t try at all.

We at Bright Side have found some of the most ridiculous playground design fails, and we want to share them with you.

16. In Soviet Russia, you don’t take the trash out. The trash takes you out.

17. Ahh, SpongeBob, my old friend... Wait, what?

18. Some kids prefer a little peace and quiet while they’re playing.

Did any of these make you laugh or cry out in disbelief? Do you think these fails were accidental or that the designers knew exactly what they were doing? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
